First and foremost, I'd like to stress that I am no expert. I am not a doctor and or professional in the medical field. I am a French woman living in America who went through postpartum depletion, had to self-diagnose myself, eventually received a diagnosis from an actual doctor and here I am telling you about my journey.

Self-work, loving yourself, staying aligned, let alone healing can be a long road. Self-work is hard and some feelings that arise from it can be completely unwelcome, but it is what makes us grow. Our perception and acceptance of all feelings can really play a role on how we navigate our lives. For most people, the first thing they comment[...]
I've been asked this question perhaps two weeks into having a baby. It's a question that comes up over and over again and I've been adamant to answer it.

And yes, downloading apps is the first thing I did, in case I'd miss any super vital important details on the complexity of making a human. I thought to myself, "Oh come on! how can a[...]
TO ME, THERE ARE THREE GROUPS OF WALKING BABIES: The 10 months one, the 12 months one and the 16-18 months one. Here's why I call them groups: because you get different type of moms in each one of them. The ten months mom group understands and experiences chaos before any other moms. They barely had time to pop out a baby, then it's already[...]
